Barrel Roller Goblin

Grief. When an ally that the Barrel Roller can see within 30 feet is reduced to 0 hit points, the Barrel Roller enters a grief-fueled rage until the end of its next turn.

During this rage, the Barrel Roller has advantage on attack rolls and deals an extra 1d8 damage on each hit. After the rage ends, the Barrel Roller has disadvantage on attack rolls until the end of its next turn.

If all of the Barrel Roller’s allies are reduced to 0 hit points, this rage lasts for 1 minute instead.

Barrel Carrier. The Barrel Roller begins with 1d4 barrels, each barrel is a Medium object with 20 hit points weighing about 44lbs. While it has at least one barrel, it is in Barrel Form. The barrels are destroyed one at a time, and excess damage carries over to the next barrel. While the Barrel Roller has barrels, it can use its Barrel Form abilities.

While in Barrel Form, the barrels absorb all damage from attacks made by creatures the Barrel Roller can see. Attacks from creatures it cannot see (such as those behind it) damage the Barrel Roller normally.

When the last barrel is destroyed, the Barrel Roller enters Barrel‑less Form. In this form, its speed increases by 10 feet, its AC decreases by 4, it loses access to Barrel Form abilities, and it gains access to Barrel‑less Form abilities.

Aura of Confidence. All allies within 30 feet of the Barrel Roller have advantage on saving throws and are immune to the Frightened condition.

Barrel Smash (Barrel Form Only). Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 15 (3d8 + 2) bludgeoning damage, and the target must succeed a DC 14 Strength saving throw or be pushed back 10ft.

Punch (Barrel-less Form Only). Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 10ft., one target. Hit: 10 (2d8 + 1) bludgeoning damage.

Ground Smash (Recharge 5-6, Barrel-less Form Only). The Barrel Roller slams the ground in fury. All creatures within 15 feet take 14 (3d6 + 4) bludgeoning damage and must succeed a DC 14 Strength saving throw or be knocked Prone. If any of the affected creatures are allies, the Barrel Roller skips its next turn out of guilt.

Feed the Crew (Recharge 4-6, Barrel Form Only). The Barrel Roller scoops a mugful of the strange liquid from one of its barrels and offers it to an ally within 10 feet that can see or hear it. Roll a d4 to determine the effect of the mysterious brew.

Barrel Throw (Recharge 4-6, Barrel Form Only). The Barrel Roller hurls one of its barrels at a point it can see within 60 feet. Each creature on that space must make a DC 14 Dexterity saving throw.

Fail: 14 (4d6) bludgeoning and is knocked Prone, Success: half damage and no conditions.

After the barrel bursts, allies within 15 feet of that space regain 15 hit points. The Barrel Roller permanently loses the thrown barrel.

Cover the Crew (Barrel Form Only). The Barrel Roller gently drops one of its barrels onto an unoccupied space adjacent to it. The barrel is a Medium object that provides Total Cover to Small creatures behind it and Half Cover to Medium or larger creatures. If the barrel is not destroyed, the Barrel Roller can pick it back up as a bonus action.

Thickening Confidence (Recharge 5-6, Barrel-less Form Only). The Barrel Roller gains + 2 AC until the start of its next turn.

Charge (Recharge 4-6, Barrel-less Form Only). The Barrel Roller gains +5 on damage rolls until the start of its next turn.

Motivational Word (Recharge 5-6, Barrel Form Only). The Barrel Roller shouts words of encouragement in Goblin. Each creature within 15 feet that can hear and understand the Barrel Roller gains a +1d6 bonus to damage rolls until the start of the Barrel Roller’s next turn.

Protective Dash (Barrel-less Form Only). When an ally that the Barrel Roller can see within 15 feet would be reduced to 0 hit points, the Barrel Roller moves up to 15 feet to an unoccupied space adjacent to that ally and becomes the target of the attack instead, taking half damage.
